Ealing Soup Kitchen



“For when I was hungry, you gave me food, when thirsty, you gave me drink, when naked, you clothed me...”
(Matthew 25,v.35)

Founded in the early 1970’s, Ealing Soup Kitchen is run by a group of local churches, including St Stephen’s and is open every Saturday and Sunday, 3.30pm - 5 pm, in the church room at St. John’s Church, Mattock Lane, West Ealing, serving hot food and drinks to the homeless and needy in the Borough of Ealing.

There is usually also a selection of clothing and blankets available. At Christmas time we are open Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day, for longer hours, and on Christmas Day and Boxing Day a full dinner is served.

Although we do have one part-time professional worker whose main job is counselling, all the other workers are volunteers, recruited mainly from the churches involved in the scheme: St. John’s, St. Stephen’s, St.Paul’s, St. Mary’s (South Ealing), Haven Green Baptist, Ealing Abbey, Ealing Christian Centre and Hope Community Church. Most teams welcome volunteers from other parts of the borough.
